Academic: Polls show immigration is a loser for Democrats

One academic with a career in poll cheating says immigration is a political winner for the GOP because more Republicans than Democrats care about it.

“Democratic voters who support immigration do not see the issue as important as Republican voters who oppose it… [so GOP] dissidents continue to be politically stronger than supporters,” he said. Washington Post.

Alexander Kustov, an assistant professor at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, continued:

More American pollsters say [such as Gallup] Lawmakers are hesitant to decide on immigration policy in ways that facilitate entry into the United States because they support immigration. My research shows that they’re right when they’re hiding. American anti-immigration people are more active in this regard than pro-immigration people.

In fact, the number of people actively speaking out against immigration has increased as the country has focused more on immigration over the past decade.

Kustov’s peer-reviewed study states:

During the high contextual relevance to immigration in 2016, this number was about 2%. [pro-migration] against 12% [anti-migration] To all participants who pointed to an overwhelming trend in favor of the anti-immigrant cause in public… [Also,] Compared to pro-immigration voters, anti-immigration voters are more concerned with immigration in particular than with politics in general.

Kostuv wrote in the newspaper that this move towards immigration would likely be masked by weak voting. Washington Post:

People who agree to participate in surveys tend to be more liberal and ideologically more extreme than the general population. People’s refusal to participate in opinion polls has only increased in recent years. As a result, recent polls may be exaggerating the rising pro-immigration view.

However, Kustov’s cautious article sets aside questions as to why voters are reasonably opposed to immigration.

He even argues that records of immigrant deaths at the border should encourage Americans to take in more immigrants.

More likely, increased death, drugs, rape, and economic damage are expected to fuel public opposition to the federal government’s deadly economic policies against more migrant smuggling and smuggling, immigration laws, mountains, and highways. In recent press conferences, GOP leaders have tried to embarrass Democrats – and their voters – for helping create such chaos.

Civil harassment may influence some Democrats with pro-immigration views to assert moral superiority over anti-immigration Americans, or simply succumb to the social pressure they feel from other Democrats.

But Kustov also ignores the role of political donors.

Many national and local business donors are willing to pay lawmakers to increase the overt and covert supply of legal and illegal migrant workers, consumers, and tenants to businesses across the country.

Both the GOP and Democratic party supporters continue to put forward measures to increase immigration, thus preventing GOP leaders from using their votes to truly reduce devastating immigration.

According to a 2020 study by Donor Primaries and Polarization in the United States, donor harassment leads political candidates to positions that are unpopular among their constituents.

“The ideology of the Republican candidates appears to be consistent only with the ideology of their donors, not their primary constituency or their electorate as a whole,” the study’s author wrote in a July 12 article. The Washington Post added:

Republican donors seem reluctant to support more moderate candidates who could prove more viable in the general election. No matter how Republican or how competitive a county is, the ideology of the Republican candidates is closely related to the ideology of the Republican donors.

Democrats seem aware that their donors are forcing them to take unpopular positions in the transition.

For example, Democratic Party leaders and influential members have quietly supported business-backed changes that would allow Fortune 500 executives to replace many Democratic voting graduates with cheaper foreign workers.

But these graduates are becoming increasingly important to Democratic turnout on Election Day.

So far, the result has been that Democrats have found ways to quietly support the donor agenda and also ensure that the agenda quietly dies in tough congressional deliberations, often without any political fingerprints.

Similarly, many GOP lawmakers are determined to curb illegal immigration, but are silent as agency officials kidnap more and more migrant workers, consumers, and tenants. This two-pronged politics dominated the Republican Party until 2016, allowing Donald Trump to win the nomination thanks to the promise of a border wall and strict enforcement of the law.

Since at least 1990, the establishment of DC has attracted tens of millions of legal and illegal immigrants, as well as temporary worker visas from poor countries, to serve as workers, consumers, and tenants for various American investors and CEOs.

This federal economic policy of exploitative immigration is destroying the free market in the United States by increasing the labor supply for the benefit of employers.

Polls show that the public is willing to accept some immigration, but also show deep and widespread public opposition to labor immigration and the influx of temporary contract workers for jobs sought by young American college graduates.
